In August, our Courtroom Gallery will host a special group exhibition featuring work by North Carolina artists Lisa LeMair, Christina Weisner, Chistopher Proto, Emily Holmes, Wendy Allen, Scott Solter and Ashley Paskov.Surface and Undercurrents: influences from Iceland, the Arctic & the Anthropocene is a collaborative group exhibition that explores environmental themes. Ideas for this exhibit were developed during the artists' retreat in Iceland during the summer of 2023.
Each artist brings a focus on issues related to human-caused climate change and environmental responsibility, from the rise of invasive species (including humans!), the toll of polluting industries, melting of the glaciers and sea-level rise, technology, and the impact of tourism, over-fishing, and over-consumption.
There will be an opening reception on Friday, August 2 from 6pm to 8pm, where visitors can meet the artists and view their work.
The opening reception is during downtown Manteo's First Friday festivities, and is free and open to the public.
Surface and Undercurrents: influences from Iceland, the Arctic & the Anthropocene will be on display in the Courtroom Gallery August 2-31, 2024.
